Configure the Video Window Layout

Viewer Settings

When [16:9] is selected in [Aspect Ratio], black bars
appear at the right and left sides of the video.
Note
Using a custom grid may increase the load on the CPU.
Move a Video Window
You can drag a video window to any position.
When the grid is set to [None], the video window remains
in the position to which it is dragged.
For options other than [None], the video window snaps to
the grid position that is nearest to where the window is
dragged.
Note
When a setting other than [None] is selected for grid, the video
window is automatically adjusted to the grid. When a grid has
just been set it retains its original size, but when the video
window is dragged, window size is adjusted to the grid.
You can enlarge the video window in multiples of the grid
frame size (2 x 2, 3 x 3, etc.).

After configuring the display and position of the video
windows, follow these steps to save the layout.
